Self-effacing (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

modest

'self-effacing' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for modest that I've seen before include "Inexpensive" , "Unassuming; limited" , "Not vain, rather shy" , "Avoiding indecency; unassuming" , "Bashful" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Sydney Morning Herald.
